Either this way or you could select your root album (the collection) in the
album folder view, and check the Option "View->Include Album Sub-Tree" in the
Menu, to see all your images at once. Then you could simply filter these images
with the search field in the status bar.

Yes, in general this could work. But ignoring these files silently wouldn't be
the best option. I will try to think about some solution. Maybe we could have a
wizard-like dialog: The first page is the one we have now, and the second (if
needed) shows the conflicting files and offers some tips / buttons / actions /
whatever to solve these issues.
